Hebrews 12:14-29
Who are some examples of great faith in your life? Who models what it looks like to follow Christ even when it is difficult? Also, who are examples of failed faith? Who have you seen take the path of self-destruction and faithlessness?
After a whole chapter spent on great examples of faith out of the pages of the Bible, we are now warned not to follow the wayward path of others. We are told not to be like Esau who sold his inheritance for a single meal. He traded away everything that was promised to him for a few bites of food; what a godless decision. We are then warned not to be like the Israelites who refused to approach God or listen to his voice. Out of fear, complaining, and disobedience they failed to experience everything which God had prepared for them. As we approach critical moments in life where we must choose obedience or disobedience, we must heed these warnings.
We should choose faith because this is the only way to see God. We should choose faith because this is the path to our inheritance. We should choose faith because this is what ushers us into the greatest worship service ever with angelic beings and the people of God. Finally, we should choose faith because this is what makes us citizens of God’s eternal kingdom.
Father God, thank you for the relationship I have with you. Help me to have an eternal perspective and choose to walk by faith. Amen.
What are some of the most compelling reasons for you to choose to live by faith in Christ?
